"Why did the American Revolution occur?" is the strongest research question.
Why: it is open-ended, analytical, and lends itself to investigation and argument using evidence. The others are factual/descriptive (how long, how many died, who were the leaders) and can be answered briefly without deeper analysis.
If you need a more focused question, narrow it by cause, time, place, or group. Examples:
- "To what extent did British taxation policies between 1763 and 1776 cause colonial unrest leading to the American Revolution?"
- "How did Enlightenment ideas influence colonial leaders' decision to pursue independence?"
